Netflix causing TivoReboot

When i watch netflix, it reboots the tivo occasionally. i never had a premiere, but this has happened 3 times in the last 2 days. i have it hard wired.

I guess this was an issue with the premiere - but i never saw this so much on the XL (Series 3)...

Tivo themselves dont seem to know much about this. Thinking of returning box to BestBUY. Im pretty upset at Tivo for this. Netflix crashing should not cause a full box reboot. This is a pretty crappy app setup.

Is your Roamio Pro hooked up to a "green" switch by any chance? There is currently a bug with Roamio software connecting to some green switches where you get intermittent network problems that TiVo is working on a fix for. Some folks have worked around it by connecting to a non-green switch for now.

I have both of those updates and I have seen 2 reboots when exiting Netflix since the updates were installed. I also had one while a TV episode was playing on Netflix. I fell asleep and the Tivo woke me up when it played the intro video after rebooting. I checked to see if the episode had finished and it had not. It had rebooted in the middle of it.

I get Netflix on my Smart HDTV but tried it out on the Roamio + and had no problems, the picture looked as good, the TiVo told me the resolution was 1080p /24, with the Sharp HDTV I could not find any way to tell the resolution, on normal programs I can push the TVs display button and see what resolution is coming in, but not with Netflix.

I can't think of a time when my TiVo lost connectivity. Netflix was streaming without a problem and then boom! The Tivo rebooted.

If the Netflix servers become unreachable during streaming, it will reboot your box. It doesn't mean the internet goes down for a long period of time, only for a few seconds. The Netflix app needs to better handle this.

If you lose internet connection momentarily, you will most likely get a reboot. AFAIK, there is no way around this currently.

I have watched about 10 hours of Netflix without any re-boot than last night my first TiVo re-boot, loss of internet connection you think is causing this? I wonder if my router log would show that I had a loss of internet service, I will have to check that,. When using my Smart HDTV I never had any problems with Netflix, what would happen if my internet went down for a short time (when watching Netflix) with the HDTV, a TV re-boot ??
